Proverbs 3:25-35

²⁵Don’t be afraid of sudden fear, neither of the desolation of the wicked, when it comes;

²⁶for Yahweh will be your confidence, and will keep your foot from being taken.

²⁷Don’t withhold good from those to whom it is due, when it is in the power of your hand to do it.

²⁸Don’t say to your neighbor, “Go, and come again; tomorrow I will give it to you,” when you have it by you.

²⁹Don’t devise evil against your neighbor, since he dwells securely by you.

³⁰Don’t strive with a man without cause, if he has done you no harm.

³¹Don’t envy the man of violence. Choose none of his ways.

³²For the perverse is an abomination to Yahweh, but his friendship is with the upright.

³³Yahweh’s curse is in the house of the wicked, but he blesses the habitation of the righteous.

³⁴Surely he mocks the mockers, but he gives grace to the humble.

³⁵The wise will inherit glory, but shame will be the promotion of fools.
